A: The names refer to the scale: 1:100,000 scale and 1:24,000 scale maps, meaning that the detail is more than four times better on the 24K maps. The 24K maps will also give the Oregon the data it needs for automotive routing. The downside is that the 24K maps is spread out on regional cards and discs, while the 100K map can be purchased all-in-one.
